Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of forming a security device comprising the steps of: providing a base layer having a top side,
- a security card having a passport photograph printed onto its surface by a transparent curable resin that forms a protective layer resisting removal of the photograph.
- the curable resin may be applied by ink jet printing in the shape of security patterns. These patterns may overlie the photograph. After printing, the resin is cured by irradiation with optical radiation, such as UV light.
- optical radiation such as UV light.
- the known method has as a disadvantage that the printed security pattern is relatively coarse and has dimensions in the range of 1 or more mm.
- the position of a photograph on top of the top side of the security device forms a stepped surface which may present an access point for tampering or attempted removal of the photograph.
- a data carrier in which on a base layer a colored line image is provided by printing. Over the colored line image, a cover layer is applied on top of the base layer, in which cover layer a lenticular array of cylinder lenses is formed. Via a laser, a blackened line image is interlaced in the open space between the printed line images, to form a number of distinct "flip" images that can be observed by tilting the data carrier at different angles to the viewer. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of forming a security document having improved security features.
- general security features such as an ID card, bank card, credit card, driver's license or passport
- the pattern comprises an optical structure having dimensions smaller than 100 ⁇
- the imprint member is transparent and flexible and the protective layer is hardened by the transmission of the optical radiation through the transparent imprint member while it is contacting the protective layer, the imprint member being removed from the protective layer after at least partial hardening of the protective layer, followed by the step of providing a blackened pattern into the base layer by focusing a laser beam via the optical structure and laser engraving image elements into the base layer, in a focal plane that is situated at a vertical distance h of between 50 ⁇ and 150 ⁇ from the color image elements .
- the protective layer By maintaining a flexible and transparent imprint member into contact with the soft or liquid protective layer and curing the protective layer by irradiating optical radiation onto the protective layer through the imprint member, the protective layer can be hardened to a sufficient degree such that removal of the flexible imprint member leaves well-defined small-scale structures.
- This allows an accurately defined lens pattern to be formed with accurately defined dimensions smaller than 100 ⁇ , in the image area.
- laser engraved security features can be applied in the image area of the base layer, resulting in enhanced security.
- the blackened pattern that is provided through the lenses by laser engraving can provide a security feature in the image area that is independent from the overlying color elements, such as a number or a symbol or any other suitable pattern. It can also form part of a composite image that is composed of the top color image elements and the lower blackened image elements.
- the term "blackened” as used herein is intended to describe a darkening of the plastics material under the influence of heat that is generated in the material by the laser beam, and includes different shades of grey on a grey scale ranging from transparent to black.
- the flexible imprint member according to the invention can be applied at a site that is remote from the site at which the security device is provided with general security features, so that a personalization step can be carried out including printing an identity photograph of a holder into the security device or the identity device and applying on top of the image, the imprinted lens system and completing the security device or the identity device by laser engraving in the image area through the imprinted lens system.
- Substrate Conformal Imprint Lithography is a known technology to provide large area patterning on Silicon substrates using a soft composite working stamp carried by a rigid glass carrier.
- the patterned stamp can be progressively brought into contact with a photo resist layer.
- the stamp can be progressively released from the substrate leaving well-defined structures with dimensions of smaller than 100 nm.
- WO 2009/078881 describes an imprint lithography stamp having a regular pattern of sub-features, the stamp being made of silicon or polymeric materials.
- imprint technology for manufacturing of a lens system overlying color image elements in an image area on a security device, followed by laser engraving in a focal plane that is situated at a vertical distance from the color image elements, is by no means evident from the above disclosures.
- the image is provided in the image area via printing of transparent color image elements, such as Yellow, Magenta and Cyan, the optical structure comprising an array of lenticular lenses, wherein the blackened pattern is provided in the base layer by the laser beam through the lenticular lenses and through the transparent color image elements.
- a color portrait is formed by colored patterns, which may be built up from (partly) overlapping picture elements (for instance droplets) of transparent cyan, yellow and magenta ink.
- the laser Via the lenticular lenses that are applied over the color portrait, the laser can cause a blackening of the polymer material in the base layer (such as polycarbonate) through the transparent ink, and in that way form blackened picture elements that complete each matching color picture element.
- the printed color image elements preferably have an average transmission of at least 50% in the wavelength range between 400 nm and 700 nm.
- the ink according to the invention has a transparency of at least 50% for visible light, the underlying blackened picture elements are clearly visible through the ink.
- the printed picture elements are situated at a distance from the focal point of the lenticular lenses, such that the lens system does not affect the viewing of the colored image.
- the blackened picture elements may be formed by the laser being focused by the lenticular lenses to radiate through the color image elements and to cause a blackening in the focal point of the lenses in the underlying layer, which may be formed of for instance laser sensitive polycarbonate.
- the color image elements have a transmission of at least 50%, preferably at least 80% at the wavelength of the laser beam, so that the inks are not degraded by energy deposition of the laser beam in the inks.
- the method according to the invention allows application of a secure color portrait at a location and time of choice, while the portrait is at least partly applied in the polymer material below the top surface of the security device.
- a print controller having a memory being is connected to an image applicator, the image being formed by storing image data in the controller memory and providing an ink layer onto the top layer via the image applicator that is connected to the controller, followed by scanning a laser beam that is connected to a laser controller, over the security the area, the laser controller obtaining image data from said memory for burning image elements into the substrate through the array of lenses.
- the laser controller obtaining image data from said memory for burning image elements into the substrate through the array of lenses.
- two or more images that are rotated with respect to one another can be applied as interlaced line images below the lenses to provide a stereoscopic effect when the two images are viewed simultaneously with a respective eye such as described in EP 1 874 557.
- the color elements are contiguous or overlapping, so that the complete image area Ai is covered by color image elements and a high resolution color image is formed.
- the invention furthermore relates to a method of forming a security device comprising the steps of:
- the laser controller - scanning the laser beam across the lens structure by the laser controller and providing blackened image elements based on the image data into the substrate below the lens elements through the printed color image elements into an underlying layer in a focal plane that is situated at a vertical distance h of between 50 ⁇ and 150 ⁇ from the color image elements.
- imprinting technology is a preferred manner of providing the lens structure, it is also possible to form the lens structures by other means such as embossing, vacuum forming, milling or 3D printing techniques.
- the invention is based on the insight that two different image forming techniques can be combined in different planes, and that laser engraving can successfully be carried out through the transparent inks overlying the laser sensitive layer.
- an embodiment of a method of forming a security document according to the invention comprises the steps of:
- a lens structure is applied over the colored ink, the lens structure having a
- predetermined focal plane situated at a distance from the top side
